| First saw him live about 40 years ago and several times since. Always a great show. Yes, he's a classic. Jerry Jeff Walker is right up there too!

Little ray of sunshine
| There is no one like Willie. He is a wonderful songwriter and performer.

Yessir. Emmylou is a treasure in her own right. Props to Willie's sister Bobbie on piano. And our boy, Mickey Raphael...maybe my favorite harp player. |

Averaging 6.3 posts per year
| Been a fan for 40 years. I've spent the last year or so hitting the used record stores picking up mint albums for $5 or $10. Excellent recordings. Rick
Texting.......easier than calling. |
